Rarely
has a political movement with so much power collapsed so fast, certainly
not since the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Beginning
in 1990, Global Warming has been the battle cry behind schemes for global
control of industry, energy use, water use, private property and community
development. It has been the excuse for economy-killing legislation
like Cap and Trade (that will extract $865 billion from an already overtaxed
people who use energy), and global-to-local polices like Sustainable
Development (that robs local communities of freedom to decide their
own future development). As a result, the world economy is being transformed
into a new Dark Ages of superstition and thought-control – all
in the name of Global Warming – or more recently – Climate
Change.

No
stone has been left unturned in Global Warming zealotry and its drive
to transform human civilization. It seemed the juggernaut could not
be stopped. Proponents have controlled every branch of government, from
federal to local. They have created international policy, from the 1992
Global Climate Treaty, to the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, to the 15 annual
meetings of the Climate Conference of the Parties (COP) with nearly
200 national delegations in attendance, and much more.

And
of course, their fellow travelers in the media have deftly excluded
any reports that may expose the Global Warming “consensus.”
“Indisputable.” said Al Gore, as he won the Nobel Prize
and the Oscar for his efforts to spread the gospel. “Go Green,”
said nearly every corporation and school classroom. Barack Obama says
firmly, “The science is settled.”

To
enforce their agenda of top down control over the world economy based
on Climate Change, the one factor they had to oversee with an iron hand
was the science and how it was reported. They were well aware that any
crack in public confidence of that science could mark their doom.

The
cracks began to show just over two years ago as Senator James Inhofe
took over chairmanship of the Senate Environment Committee. As he held
hearings on the issue of Climate Change, for the first time those scientists
whose research didn’t agree with official global reports were
heard. It caused a sensation. Suddenly, the claims of consensus rang
hollow. There was disagreement. There was debate. Truth began to leak
through the cracks.

Over
the following year the debate intensified. Those skeptical of the official
findings of the UN’s Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change
(IPCC) questioned the methods in which the conclusions were made that
man was causing global warming and that temperatures were rising at
an alarming rate. The skeptical scientists asked for documentation to
show how the conclusions were made. They were not answered.

Meanwhile,
the Global Warming proponents ramped up their attacks against anyone
who dared question their statements. Skeptics were labeled as heretics
who dared defy the “globally-acceptable truth” of the high
priests of global warming. Some proponents actually called for “Nuremberg-style
trials” of the skeptics, accusing them of endangering the entire
planet simply for asking questions.

The
attacks became official threats when, in October, 2006, two U.S. Senators,
Olympia Snowe (R-Maine) and Jay Rockefeller (D-WV) sent a letter to
ExxonMobil Chairman Rex Tillerson. The letter derided Exxon for helping
to fund global warming “deniers,” (a term the global warming
proponents use frequently to try and draw a parallel with those who
deny the Holocaust). Said the letter, “we are convinced that
ExxonMobil’s longstanding support of a small cadre of global climate
change skeptics, and those skeptics’ access to and influence on
government policymakers, have made it increasingly difficult for the
United States to demonstrate the moral clarity it needs across all facets
of diplomacy.”

The
letter went on to say, “ExxonMobil and its partners in denial
have manufactured controversy, sown doubt, and impeded progress with
strategies all-too reminiscent of those used by the tobacco industry
for so many years.” The reference to the tobacco industry
was a not-so-veiled threat that Exxon could face the crush of government
regulation that could destroy their ability to sell their product. But
the intimidation didn’t stop there. The letter continued, “We
recommend that ExxonMobil publicly acknowledge both the reality of climate
change and the role of humans in causing or exacerbating it. Second,
ExxonMobil should repudiate its climate change denial campaign…”
The only thing the Senators left out were the words, “Science
be damned.”

The
last time human kind was strapped into such a mental straight jacket
was during the Inquisition of the Dark Ages. The period was an era of
ignorance, superstition, social chaos and repression. Anyone caught
questioning the doctrine or power of the church was labeled a heretic
and found his or her way to the rack or into the middle of a fire while
tied to a stake. The church, of course, was practicing its own brand
of “globally-acceptable truth.”

Still,
the scientists came out against the global warming hysteria in ever-
increasing numbers. Harvard scholar and climate scientist Willie Soon
put it best saying “It’s the Sun, stupid.”

Dr.
Mark Campbell, professor of chemistry at the U.S. Navel Academy in Annapolis
recently wrote, “The sky is not burning, and to claim that it
is amounts to journalistic malpractice.”

Said
U.S. Government atmospheric scientist Stanley B, Goldenberg, “It
is a blatant lie put forth in the media that makes it seem there is
only a fringe of scientists who don’t buy into anthropogenic global
warming.”

In
the past year, more than 700 scientists from around the world have expressed
their doubts. That’s 12 times the number of UN IPCC global warming
alarmists.

Top
that with the fact that more than 34,000 American scientists have signed
a petition saying there is no convincing scientific evidence that human
release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gases is causing
disruption of the Earth’s climate.

To
generally summarize the findings of those scientists who refuse to just
go along with the Climate Change party line, their investigative research
shows any warming actually stopped in 1999. And, in fact, they say the
brief warming period we experienced in the past decade was completely
natural, caused in part by storms on the sun, not CO2 emissions from
SUVs. The sun storms have ended, say scientists, and now a cooling period
has begun.

However,
in spite of the growing evidence showing that the earth is not heating
up, CO2 is not a pollutant, and man has not destroyed the earth, the
drive to enforce draconian legislation has moved forward like an unstoppable
express train. Cap and Trade passed the House of Representatives last
fall and stands ready for approval any time in the Senate. The “Warm
Mongers” have a gala event planned in Copenhagen where they intend
to use climate change as an excuse to enforce global government. Local
communities are enforcing legislation under Sustainable Development
to control water use, land use, community development, even population
control – again, all under the excuse of climate change; as the
“go green” mantra grows ever more shrill in the complying
media and in corporate advertising.

Unstoppable?
Well, not so fast. Something interesting has happened to bring a real
downer to the Climate Change party. It seems an adventurous hacker found
his way into some very private e-mails – ten years worth of documents
and correspondence – and suddenly things have changed.

The
e-mails were in the files of the Climate Research Unit (CRU) at the
University of East Anglia in England. And their importance to the Climate
Change effort cannot be denied. The Unit’s director is Professor
Phillip Jones, who is in charge of two key sets of data used by the
IPCC to draw up its reports. The CRU has direct links to the Hadely
Centre, part of Great Britain’s Met Office, which selects most
of the IPCC’s key scientific contributors ( the scientists and
their reports chosen for the final IPCC documents that affect climate
change treaties and policy).

Professor
Jones’ global temperature record is the most important of the
four sets of temperature data on which the IPCC and governments rely.
The predictions in the CRU reports have steadily predicted that the
world will warm to catastrophic levels unless trillions of dollars are
spent to avert it.

Professor
Jones is also a key part of the closely knit group of American and British
scientists responsible for promoting the picture of world temperatures
conveyed in Michael Mann’s “hockey stick” graph which
ten years ago turned climate science upside down by showing that, after
1,000 years of decline, global temperatures have recently shot up to
their highest level in recorded history. It was that graph that started
the stampede toward global warming hysteria.

So
the correspondence to and from Professor Jones and his CRU is a window
into the real thinking of the Climate Change community. That’s
why the revelations from those e-mails have caused such a firestorm
in the scientific and political community.

Just
a few of the exposed e-mails reveal efforts to hide the fact that research
was not supporting the global warming claims. Kevin Trenberth, of the
U.S. National Center for Atmospheric Research wrote to Professor Jones,
“We can’t account for the lack of warming at the moment,
and it is as travesty that we can’t.” Professor Jones
wrote that he had used a “trick” to “hide
the decline” in a chart detailing recent global temperatures.

The
correspondence clearly shows a pattern of intimidation to editors of
scientific journals if they did not toe the line and keep out dissenting
“skeptic” findings. In a particularly damning e-mail exchange
from 2003, Michael Mann was alarmed when his “Hockey Stick”
graph was discredited by research from another scientist. In the cited
e-mail exchange, Mann and Jones discuss a scheme for getting rid of
Hans Von Storch, the editor of the journal Climate Research
for publishing the contrary research of distinguished fellow scientists.

Some
of the e-mails appear to confirm concerns that Jones, Mann and others
have destroyed data that could expose their fraudulent research methods.
One e-mails shows Jones suggesting to Mann that he delete certain e-mails
that apparently dealt with the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report, released
in 2007. He also suggests that one of their colleagues delete related
materials. Jones refused to comply with a Freedom of Information request
by saying in an e-mail, “I think I’ll delete the file
rather than send (it) to anyone,” and “We also
have a data protection act, which I will hide behind.”

Those
raw documents show a pattern of deception, intimidation and fraud. In
the words of respected scientist and skeptic Fred Singer, “The
Climategate disclosures …, consisting of some thousands of e-mails
between a small group of British and U.S. climate scientists, demonstrate
that global warming is man-made after all – created by this small
group of zealous scientists. They have used flawed data, phony statistics,
and various tricks. They have covered up any contrary evidence and refused
to open their work to the scrutiny of independent scholars. By keeping
out intruders, by reviewing their own papers, by capturing scientific
journals and intimidating editors, they have tried to suppress any dissent.”

In
the short time since the disclosure of the documents, the sky has fallen
in on the once seemingly invincible Climate Change juggernaut, prompting
climatologist Dr. Patrick Michaels to exclaim, “This is not
a smoking gun, it’s a mushroom cloud.”

As
I have been reporting for more than fifteen years, Global Warming and
Climate Change have never been about protecting the environment. It
is the excuse used to subvert free markets, industry, private property
ownership, local development and our standard of living into a nightmare
of control and regulation. It has been a scheme from the beginning to
impose global government.

In
the name of environmental protection and a legitimate concern over the
survival of the planet, Americans and others around the world have voluntarily
surrendered their freedoms because they were told it was necessary to
survive. They would never have given up those freedoms simply to promote
an ideology like Marxism. Global Warming was invented to cover the real
intent.

Now,
the truth has been exposed in gory detail, like a horrible crash with
entrails spilled across the road way. People are shocked and angry as
the magnitude of the betrayal comes into focus. Recent polls now show
59% of the American people say they fully believe scientists “falsified
research data to support their own beliefs about global warming.”

The
perpetrators like Phillip Jones and Michael Mann and others are trying
to downplay the disastrous revelations of the e-mails, saying they were
stolen. That fact does not change their content. The White House says
the revelations make no difference. Obama intends to move forward with
Climate Change legislation anyway. They continue to keep up the party
line that “everyone agrees” that Global Warming is a real
threat, caused by humans.

These,
of course, are efforts to maintain a unified front to save what once
appeared to be inevitable. But the lawsuits for more information have
already started against agencies like NASA, were researcher Christopher
Horner believes he will find more evidence similar to the Jones scandal.
The scandal will grow, revealing to the world the greatest deception
in the history of governance.

The
Copenhagen Conference is already in disarray, as some of the head rats
prepare to abandon ship. Most notably, Al Gore almost immediately announced
plans to cancel a lecture on Global Warming he was to give at the Copenhagen
gathering. The news media, which has been the best friend of the scam
and the worst enemy of free and independent news, now shows signs of
scuttling their former partners in crime as they seek to rat them out
in sensational stories about the developing scandal.

For
the average American, now is the time to take action against these scoundrels
who sought to enslave you. The leaders who most deserve your wrath at
the polls are Barbara Boxer and Henry Waxman, who are determined to
pass Cap and Trade, no matter what. In fact, Boxer’s reaction
to Climategate is not to express outrage that Warm Mongers were using
her to enforce their scheme to rob taxpayers out of trillions of dollars
for bogus climate change regulations. Of course not. Boxer wants to
hold hearings to look into the “illegal actions” that were
taken in obtaining the e-mails! She shouted with grand indignity: “That
is a crime!”

And
of course there are Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi who are determined to
help them do it. Their continued pursuit of “Climate Change”
rules and regulations will show beyond doubt that their true agenda
has nothing to do with helping the environment – but everything
to do with granting government more and more power to enforce their
will.

Don’t
leave out Barack Obama, who told the September economic summit in Pittsburg,
“Rising sea levels threaten every coastline. More powerful
storms and floods threaten every continent. More frequent droughts and
crop failures breed hunger and conflict already thrives. On shrinking
islands, families are already being forced to flee their homes as climate
refugees…the time we have to reverse this tide is running out.”
Every word of this fear mongering is a lie and Barack Obama remains
fully prepared to enforce global policy in its name that will destroy
your freedom and way of life.

Finally,
now is the time to demand that state and local government officials
roll back the policies of Sustainable Development and run the international
organizations like ICLEI out of town. Controls on water, air, local
development, curtailment of industry, regulations on what property owners
can do with their own land, taxes on energy use, and much more have
been put in place under the fear mongering of carbon emissions and global
warming. The facts now reveal that all of this was a lie. That makes
laws created in its name illegitimate and therefore void. Vote out any
city council members of county commissioners who refuse to do it.

It
is astonishing that the mighty force of Climate Change has fallen so
hard – so fast. But it is a gift we must not waste. Now is the
time for all lovers of freedom to rise up, throw the scoundrels out,
throw off our “climate chains of tyranny” and take back
our American freedoms.

In the
name of environmental protection and a legitimate concern over the survival
of the planet, Americans and others around the world have voluntarily
